Users’ Challenges
time saving
minimal learning effort
intuitive, simple, and clearly structured
Flow-Chart Algorithms /
Clinical Algorithm Maps
Standards Proposal:
Society for Medical Decision Making, 1992
Asbru’s Challenges
logical sequences
hierarchical decomposition
flexible execution order
sequential, parallel, any-order, unordered
state characteristics of conditions
Visual Representation
Plan Examples
Focus + Context
Prototype
User Centered Design
3-step evaluation process
qualitative
scenario-based
Limitations
no temporal aspects
execution support limited
introduction of new concepts
representation cumbersome for certain constellations
Conclusions
visual communication of the logic of a treatment plan to domain experts
+ quick verification of formal representation
based on a well-known representation
incorporation of Asbru concepts
interactive exploration, focus + context
user centered development approach
